Chapter 101 - POEM 101 : In Every Universe, I Choose You Again.

I didn't fall in love once,

I fell in love with you

in a thousand different versions of time.

In one world,

you wore a blue dress

and laughed like the sky had just opened—

and I forgot how to breathe

in the most beautiful way.

In another,

you didn't even notice me,

and still…

I loved you quietly,

like a promise I made to myself

that I would never break.

And here,

in this universe—

the one where your hand fits mine

like it was always meant to—

I am not afraid anymore.

Because loving you

is not chaos,

it is direction.

You are not a distraction,

you are my destination.

I flirt with you like a fool sometimes,

just to hear you say my name twice,

once with annoyance

and once with a smile you try to hide.

And God,

that smile—

it should be illegal

to carry so much peace

on a single face.

If loving you was a responsibility,

I would sign it like a contract

written in forever.

I would wake up every morning

and choose you again—

not because I have to,

but because every version of me

has already agreed

that you are the only decision

that never feels wrong.

I promise you

not a perfect love—

but a present one.

The kind that stays

even when words run out.

The kind that listens

even when silence is loud.

The kind that grows

even when everything else

feels like it's falling apart.

You are not just someone I love.

You are the place

where my love becomes real.

And if there are truly

infinite universes—

then somewhere,

in all of them—

I am still

looking at you

like this is the first time

my heart understood

what it was made for.

And maybe,

just maybe—

you are looking back

the same way.
